69: Genitourinary and vaginal health in midlife and beyond

69: Genitourinary and vaginal health in midlife and beyond

In this episode, we delve into the important topic of vaginal health and genitourinary symptoms, especially as we age and experience changes in our hormone levels.

If you're experiencing symptoms like burning, pain, irritation, itching, bladder urgency or leaking, recurrent UTIs, painful sex, vaginal dryness, loss of libido, increased yeast infections, or other vaginal discomfort, this episode is a must-listen!

Join us for the discussion on:

1️⃣ Vaginal Microbiome:

The vaginal microbiome is dominated by Lactobacillus species, which keeps the pH optimal at about 4 to 4.5. Estrogen plays a crucial role in maintaining this bacterial balance and acidic pH, so as estrogen levels decrease with age, the vaginal ecosystem can change, leading to various symptoms.

2️⃣ Assessing Vaginal Health:

Monitoring vaginal pH is an essential way to assess vaginal health.

3️⃣ Hormone Therapy:

If hormonal imbalances are contributing to vaginal health issues, hormone therapy may be necessary.

If you or someone you know is experiencing vaginal health symptoms, don't miss this informative episode. Remember to share it with anyone who can benefit from understanding their hormonal health and finding solutions for vaginal well-being.
